第一单元永不放弃1 英国的伟大首相温斯顿丘吉尔爵士:小时候在哈罗公学上学。
当时他可不是个好学生:要不是出身名门:他可能早就因为违反纪律被开除了。
谢天谢地:他总算从哈罗毕业了:在那里犯下的错误并没有影响到他上大学。
后来:他凭着军旅生涯中的杰出变现当选为英国首相。
他的才思、智慧、公民责任感以及在二战痛苦而黑暗的时期拒绝投降的无畏勇气:为他赢得了美名。
他非凡的决心:不仅激励了整个民族:还鼓舞了全世界。
2在他首相任期即将结束时:他应邀前往母校哈罗公学:为满怀报国之志的同学们做演讲。
校长说~校长说;“年轻的先生们:当代最伟大的演说家过几天就会你们演讲:他提出的任何中肯的建议:你们都要听从。
”那个激动人心的日子终于到了。
温斯顿伯爵站了起来——他只有5英尺5英寸高:体重却有107公斤。
他做了言简意赅的讲话:永不放弃:永不:永不:永不:永不,“3 个人经历、教育机会、个人困境:这些都不能阻挡一个全力以赴追求成功的、有着坚强意志的人。
任务再苦:准备再长:难度再大:都不能让他放弃自己的追求。
就以本时代最有学问的两位科学家——阿尔伯特?爱因斯坦和托马斯?.爱迪生为例:他们都曾面临巨大的障碍和极端的批评:都曾被说成“不开窍”:被老师当成笨蛋:而放弃。
托马斯爱迪生还曾逃学:老师因为嫌他问的问题太多而经常鞭打他。
爱因斯坦一直到将近9岁才能流利的说话:学习成绩太差:有些人认为他都已经学不好了。
然而:这两个男孩的父母都相信他们:他们坚持不懈的每天和儿子一起努力:孩子们也了解到:要想成功就绝不要怕付出长期而艰辛的努力。
最终:爱因斯坦和爱迪生都摆脱了童年的困扰:进而做出了造福当今全世界的伟大发现。
4 再如亚伯拉罕?林肯这个英雄的典范:他一生面临了无数艰辛:失败和接二连三的不幸。
他的出身和经历真是一点也算不上光鲜:他在一个非常贫困的家庭长大:只受过一年正规教育:轻伤两度失败初恋爱人的突然离世也使他精神崩溃:还在八次政治选举中落马。
此后他的4个孩子有3个不幸去世:令他悲痛欲绝。

James Earle Fraser said his goal was to design a coin thatwould be "truly American." In his search for symbols, he found none more distinctive than the American buffalo. Choosing to show a Native American on the other side of the coin, Fraser said the new nickel had "perfect unity of theme."Production of "Buffalo" or "Indian Head" nickels began in February 1913. A single coining press at the Philadelphia Mint (造币⼚) started turning out the nickels at the rate of 120 a minute. But after the first examples were introduced, The New York Times said they were "bad."Other critics said that the coin's "rough" surfaces would encourage counterfeiters (造假币的⼈). But the most seriouscomplaint about the nickel had to do with its inability to stand heavy use. One coin collectors' magazine predicted that the slightest wear would remove the date and the words Five Cents "beyond understanding."In 1938, the Government staged a competition for a new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson. According to a news item of the day, the Department of Indian Affairs didn't receive a single complaint from Native Americans about the design change. Collectors didn't seem to mind either.1.In the eyes of Fraser, a __________ is the most distinctive.A. nickelB. buffaloC. Native AmericanD. unity of theme2.In the second sentence, Paragraph 2, the word "press" means________.A. publicationB. newspaperC. machineD. the act of pushing down3.The design of a buffalo was modified ________.A. because it was not able to stand heavy useB. because the words Five Cents were "beyondunderstanding"C. because the coin couldn't be pressed by the PhiladelphiaMintD. because the words were too high on the coin4.According to one collectors' magazine using a NativeAmerican and a buffalo was ________.A. a good ideaB. a bad ideaC. a perfect ideaD. a forced idea5.It seemed that the new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson________.A. won much praise from collectorsB. caused strong protests from American IndiansC. was OK both to the collectors and American IndiansD. was praised both by the collectors and American IndiansQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog. Time passed and my cards sold well. My enthusiasm for the greeting card business grew quickly. All along, I had been drawing fantasy art: monsters, dragons, castles, etc. With the birth of my first son in 1980, the content of my work went through a pretty dramatic change.Fantasy went out of the window, and I began to illustrate reality.In the spring of 1983, we, The Mary Engelbreit Greeting Card Company, took our 12 little designs to New York to exhibit them ata national card show.I remember how big the show was. I just couldn't get over it. I had no idea there were so many different card companies. And it was exciting because our 12 little cards were getting a lot of attention in that huge place!I've been told one of the reasons we had so much success at that show is because my card style was different than anything else at the market. I typically draw complicated details and use deep colors and funny or meaningful quotations.By 1985, many greeting card publishers started noticing my art, and two of them approached me with licensing contracts.I have always believed if you choose a job you love, you'll never work a day in your life. If you ask about the mystery of my success, all I can say is this: to imagine is everything!6.Before the birth of her first son, Mary Engelbreit's cardsfocused on ________.A. realityB. daily lifeC. fantasyD. dragons7.The New York show was so big that Engelbreit ________.A. couldn't walk through itB. couldn't believe itC. couldn't stay to the end of itD. couldn't understand it8.Engelbreit's cards were successful because ________.A. they were distinctive in styleB. they had a thank-you sentenceC. they had complicated detailsD. they were rich in color9. A couple of greeting card companies ________.A. presented Engelbreit with contractsB. asked Engelbreit to make her cards more distinctiveC. wanted Engelbreit to use more meaningful quotationsD. thought her cards were to complicated10.According to Mary Engelbreit, the key to success is________.A. devotionB. opportunityC. good luckD. imaginationapproveddecorateddecoratedrecuritrecuritedevolveevolvedinspectedinspectlibertylibertygravegrave independence solemn solemn interpretation interpretation exaggerate exaggerate assembled assembled monument settlement contract contract dedicated dedicated destruction alongside alongside universal version versionfamefame decoration deccorations reputation reputation tragedy enlightenment acidacid illustrationafterofaheadtoupforalongsideinforagainstasandforwithinfor one fundamental no matter how bottomIn the past distant making nothing but usually though dismissing promiseoutlookgrabbedjust about anything Onlyadvantage providedtherebyoweBCABCCBAAD。
TEXT AUnder the bombs: 19451945:在炮火攻击下1 Today, when I look back, I'm surprised that I recall the beginning so vividly; it's still clearly fixed in my mind with all its coloring and emotional intensity. It begins with my suddenly noticing 12 distant silver points in the clear brilliant sky filled with an unfamiliar abnormal hum. I'm seven years old, standing in a meadow, and staring at the points barely moving across the sky.如今,当我回首往事,我很惊讶我居然能如此生动地回忆起轰炸开始的情况,那天的色彩和紧张的情绪仍然清晰地印在我的脑海中。
那天,我突然发现在晴朗的天空中出现了12个银色的小点儿,离我很远,发出不正常的嗡嗡声,这种声音我以前从来没听过。
那年我七岁,就这样站在一片草地上,盯着天空中几乎不怎么移动的小点儿。
2 Suddenly, nearby, at the edge of the forest, there's the tremendous roar of bombs exploding. From my standpoint, I see gigantic fountains of earth spraying upward. I want to run toward this extraordinary spectacle; it terrorizes and fascinates me. I have not yet grown accustomed to war and can't relate into a single chain of causes and effects these airplanes, the roar of the bombs, the earth radiating out from the forest, and my seemingly inevitable death. Unable to conceive of the danger, I start running toward the forest, in the direction of the falling bombs. But a hand claws at me and tugs me to the ground. "Stay down," I hear my mother's trembling voice, "Don't move!" And I remember that my mother, pressing me to her, is saying something that I don't yet know exists, whose meaning I don't understand: That way is death.突然,就在附近,森林的边缘,我听到有巨大的炸弹爆炸的声音。

选词填空:Do you know February 2nd is Groundhog's Day (土拨鼠日)? Legend has it that on this morning, if a groundhog can see its shadow, there will be six more weeks of winter. If it cannot see its shadow, spring is on the way. Some believe that the means of forecast is rather arbitrary and is often incorrect. Others argue that it is significant because it recognizes that the different parts of nature are connected in some way. Each part is dependent on the rest of the parts for a healthy system. Some farmers pay close attention to the behavior of ducks and geese when predicting the weather. It is sensible to guess an early winter is coming when you see ducks and geese moving south in October. Many dog owners can tell when winter or spring will come by stroking their pet. In preparation for winter, a dog's hair becomes thicker. Dogs lose hair as spring sets in.Information gathered from nature can help people to take precautions against a hard winter or bad storm. Some animals are even believed to be able to detect when an earthquake will occur. People holding this belief even go further to say that information gathered by computers is often worthless and nature is far more accurate: Isn't it time we started paying attention to what is around us?Unit 7Section A1.They need more funds to modernize the country’s telephone system.2.
